Found this one in a bunch of responses to a YouTube post. YouTube can be pretty 'brainless' at times, but sometimes you find a nugget or two...

This one is from a recent book. I read a lot on Kindle and annotate 'things' I find interesting. From Stone Cross by Marc Cameron.

Here are a couple of quotes from Johnny Carson. Such a showman and a great host.
Quote:“If You Wake Up And You’re Not In The Obituaries, That’s A Wonderful Start”
Johnny Carson was typically hesitant to participate in interviews, but in 1984, he sat with Barbara Walters at his California home to discuss his personal life as part of one of her ABC interview specials. This was the comedian’s answer when the legendary journalist asked him to describe his idea of “the perfect day".
Quote:“Did You Know Richard Nixon Is The Only President Whose Formal Portrait Was Painted By A Police Sketch Artist?”
Johnny Carson openly preferred to avoid having serious discussions regarding politics on The Tonight Show, but was not one to back down from giving the people in charge a hard time with his satirical stylings. This jab at President Richard Nixon in response to his involvement with the Watergate scandal is one of the host’s most blisteringly hilarious examples.

Recently, I've discovered a bunch of quotes relating to whiskey (or whisky.. depending on your preferred spelling..).
So, for the alcoholics among us, here are some of the best, worst, most illustrious of the bunch:
Quote:"Too much of anything is bad, but too much good whiskey is barely enough..."
attributed: Mark Twain
Quote:"If I cannot drink bourbon and smoke cigars in Heaven, then I shall not go..."
attributed: Mark Twain
Quote:"I always take Scotch whiskey at night as a preventative of toothache. I have never had the toothache; and what is more, I never intend to have it..."
attributed: Mark Twain
Quote:"Never cry over spilt milk; it could have been whiskey..."
attributed: Maverick (**???**)
Quote:"Well, I wish some of you would tell me the brand of whiskey that Grant drinks. I would like to send a barrel of it to my other Generals."
attributed: Abraham Lincoln

LOL... Yep.
I have a few more similar quotes for the person who imbibes... Too late to fool with them tonight, but soon...

My fave quote from somebody, “I feel bad for those who don’t drink. When they wake up, that’s the best they’ll feel all day.”
